Pacing

Something I'm going to have to pay close attention to at the conventions I'm attending this year (Westercon/BayCon, Worldcon, and World Fantasy Con) is pacing myself. Kayla is going to get pretty excited, and that could lead to overwork. I love Worldcon, but we'll be turning sixty years old in August, and going without sleep is something that I could do much more easily thirty years ago than now.

I suspect that getting enough sleep is going to be a huge issue for us. I hate the idea of having to take mid-day naps or something like that. Worldcon is apt to be the biggest challenge, particularly inasmuch as I'm saying in the party hotel, which is the farthest away from the convention center, so even getting back to the room for some rest in the middle of the day is going to be a challenge.
